Nipissing University’s annual Three Minute Thesis (3MT®) competition took place on April 1, 2025, featuring graduate students presenting their research in a dynamic, three-minute format using a single slide. The event provided a platform for students to communicate their complex research to a broad audience, helping develop their skills in public speaking and research communication.

Whether it’s providing expert commentary, leading groundbreaking research, or making a difference in the community, our students, faculty, staff and alumni are making headlines. 

NU nursing students have proven they are among the best in the province, taking home the top prize at the highly anticipated 2025 Ontario Nursing Games. Hosted by the Lawrence S. Bloomberg Faculty of Nursing at the University of Toronto, the event brought together nursing students from across Ontario for a day of academic, simulation, and athletic challenges.

For Nipissing alumnus Trina Prince, becoming an award-winning advocate for equity, diversity, and inclusion (EDI) has been based on perseverance, passion, and deep commitment to uplifting marginalized voices. Earlier this year, Prince received the prestigious King Charles III Coronation Medal, awarded to individuals across Canada who have made exceptional contributions to their communities.

Nipissing University announced the receipt of a $1 million donation from The Peacock Family Foundation in support of student research, Indigenous initiatives, and Rare Dementia Support Canada (RDS Canada).
